University-Business Networking Events, November 5

At the heart of these events is the job interview—a necessary step toward landing a job. This is not something you can wing, and our speakers will shed light on the key issues and pitfalls.
Two highlights on the program:

  • A conference and discussion on the topic of recruitment, titled “Different Perspectives on the Job Interview,” moderated by journalist Guillaume Mollaret, with the participation of human resources directors, business leaders, recruitment specialists (ANDRH, APEC, MEDEF, Pôle Emploi, and a recruitment firm), and alumni.
  • Professional interviews with companies specializing in specific industries, designed to provide real-world practice and help you improve your performance through individual debriefings (pre-registration required). More than 30 recruiters will be in attendance.

This event is intended for Master’s 2 students at the Richter campus—Faculties of Economics and AES, IPAG, and ISEM—as well as Master’s 2,5th-year, and6th-year students in the health sciences.
